Acid
Reflux
Supplemental Support:
This recommendation is not meant as a diagnosis or to replace the advice
of your health care practitioner, rather it is supportive in helping
you return to health and vitality.
DOCTOR’S A- Z food supplements: Digestive Enzymes
(2 + w/ meals), Digestive Health (1+ w/meals), Glutamine (2 TID), Barley
grass ( 4 w/ meals)
Or BIOTICS food supplements: Hydro-Zyme (1 – 8)
Before or during each meal. If burning or reflux persist, discontinue
Hydro-Zyme for one or two weeks and supplement with the following:
Gastrazyme (2 – 6) As needed for symptomatic relief of
acid reflux, up to 25 to 30 per day.
L-Glutamine (2 with meals)
IPS (4 to 8 per day)
If H. pylori suspected, consider the following:
Bio-HPF (4 – 8)
* Unless otherwise noted, dosages are listed as total per day, suggest
take a portion of daily dose before two or three meals of the day.
* Where a dosage range is given, for example, IPS (4 – 8), smaller
doses are indicated for smaller framed persons or those with sensitive
constitutions, while larger doses are for larger individuals, or for
more severe conditions.
Avoid the Following:
· Dairy is hard to digest and a high allergen food. Sugar and refined grains: Raise blood
sugar and stress the adrenal glands, feed yeast, increases dysbiosis
and cause a myriad of serious health problems.
· Chemical additives: The average American consumes ten pounds of food
additives each year. This stresses the liver and the immune system.
· Hydrogenated oils and fried foods: Hydrogenated oils promote inflammation
and cardiovascular disease, while decreasing immunity and hormonal health.
Nerves and brain function are also affected.
· Repetitious eating: The foods that one becomes sensitive to are usually
those eaten on a daily basis. A simple rotation diet minimizes stress
to the immune system from hidden allergies. Try eliminating common allergens
such as wheat and other grains, dairy, corn, soy, citrus fruits, chocolate,
coffee, and soda.
· Processed and packaged foods: These foods are devoid of real nutrition.
Processed and packaged foods create nutritional deficiencies, diminishing
one’s health and vitality. SEE SECTION ON FOOD COMBINING
Basic Rules about Eating and Lifestyle:
· Drink eight 8-ounce glasses of pure water every day: You need water
to eliminate toxins. DO NOT DRINK WATER OR FLUIDS WITH MEALS. It makes
digestion more difficult by diluting your natural digestive abilities.
(Yes, a sip or two is fine.)
· Most of the food you consume (more than 50% by volume) should be vegetables:
Vegetables are high in antioxidants, trace minerals, fiber, vitamins,
minerals, and other nutrients.
· Eat a variety of foods with a balance among fat, carbohydrate, and
protein.
· Eat organic whole foods where possible.
· Exercise (according to your doctor’s suggestions).
